Bangladesh go 1-0 up with 48-run win

Credit to Windies. They could have easily gotten bowled out earlier and we could have all gone home 56 ball earlier. But Joseph and Bishoo have played out the overs and given themselves a couple of 29 not-outs.

But taking nothing away from Bangladesh. This is as comprehensive as it gets, especially if you factor in what happened to them in the Test series. Tamim Iqbal and Shakib set it up with that 207-run stand. Mushfiqur provided the late fireworks before Mashrafe & Co. exploited that famously tacky Guyana surface.

What'll be the Windies' response to this defeat? That should be fun!

The last wicket pair continues to annoy Bangladesh...

Victory isn't far and hence some lethargy has made its way to the middle. Mosaddek Hossain has clanged one. The partnership between Alzarri Joseph and Bishoo is now 37. The target is still some distance away but...

Holder, Russell fall...

Surely that's good night and good bye Windies?! We'll never say never in cricket but it'll take some getting 12 RPO by Ashley Nurse, Bishoo and Co. It's Mortaza's turn to get among the wickets. He gets his opposite number with a couple of off cutters. They stick to the wickets and those aiming for the big hits will always succumb!

Mustafizur breaks the back of this chase

Here on, Windies will have little choice but to hit out such is the devastation of the comeback man Mustafizur. Hetmeyr charges but the ball stops on him a bit and his aerial shot finds extra cover. Then Rovman Powell nicks the first ball to leave the side at 141 for 6.

Hetmeyr completes half-century

A 70-ball half-century for Shimron Hetmeyr. Just needs to keep it together through this tough phase. Power hitting is anyway Windies' forte. Been a very good innings so far. Had to deal with the Gayle run-out as well.

The pressure builds

Jason Mohammed dances down the pitch to Mehidy Hasan and a nick is pouched by Rahim. This wicket is completely down to the scoreboard pressure. The required rate touching 8.5! All hopes on Hetmeyr now

Gayle run-out

Calamitous! That was Gayle's call (the non-striker) but Shimron Hetmeyr was not responding at all. He dabbed the ball towards short-third man so it was always the non-striker's call. Gayle batted very slowly 40 (60) but he was not given a chance to build it into a big one. Trouble for WI!

New man in is Jason Mohammed.

Drinks:

17 overs 67/2. It's a very sedate. But given Windies have power players like Andre Russell waiting in the wings, all they need now is a partnership. Can young Hetmeyr step it up with Gayle?

A tale of two DRS calls

It's all happening at the Providence Stadium. Mehidy raps Galye on the pads with the one that goes with the arm. Umpire calls it not out. Mushfiqur says 'No' to the review straight away. Mashrafe calls for a mini-meeting. There's no time for it. As it turns out, that was a three-reds scenario! Gayle was on 18.

The very next ball, also the first ball of the match for Rubel Hussain, Shai Hope fell over in his attempted flick and copped one on his front pad. Umpire gave it out and Gayle asked his partner not to waste a review. Another wrong call as that was sliding down leg. West Indies two down!

Lewis succumbs to scoreboard pressure

Some runs were needed and Lewis succumbed to the pressure of having to compensate for Gayle's slow start. Looks to hit over the top of mid-off but finds the man instead. 27/1

Shai Hope is the new man in!

A sedate start

It's become common for Gayle to bide his time at the start of innings. An off-spinner bowling wide off the crease is keeping him in check. Lewis is going only slightly better at 17 off 28.

Can WI chase down 280?

Here come Lewis and Gayle. Mortaza identified them as the linchpins of the batting order on match eve. This should be fun. There's spin from one end. And if you must know, it's the off spin of Mehidy Hasan. !

Mushfiqur blitz gives Bangladesh competitive score

Superb finish from Mushi! Bangladesh direly needed a late lift and he has provided just that with a quickfire 11-ball 30. Rahim and Tamim with a couple of sixes went after Holder in the 49th to milk 22 off the over. Then Russell conceded 21 off the final one to help Bangladesh finish with 279. Now that's a score they'll breathe slightly more easier with.

Can Mushfiqur give the much-needed final push?

Doesn't have a choice, does he? Begins with a reverse-sweep and then clubs only the second six of the innings. Need to get to 250.

No hundred for Shakib; Tamim gets to his

Finally the Windies hold on to a catch. Shakib looking to sweep Bishoo gets another top edge. Gone for 98 , missing out on what would have been his 8th ODI ton. End of a 207-run stand (off 264 balls)

No such milestone troubles for Tamim, who has got to his of 146 deliveries. This ton will be questioned if Bangladesh don't win this. Not such a bad pitch now but the acceleration hasn't come.

Windies not helping themselves

with these drop catches. An abysmal effort on the field. Shakib survives despite a top-edged sweep going not too far away from the short-fine fielder. Hetmeyr makes a meal of it. Shakib survives on 84.The partnership goes on.

A late push is incoming

36 overs done: Shakib 78 (95), Tamim 76 (118), Bangladesh 163/1. A push on from here should take them close to that 300 mark!

Tamim, Shakib get to 50s

It's also a century stand for the second wicket between the two stalwarts of Bangladesh cricket. Tamim gets to the feat first - his 42nd half-century coming off his 87th delivery. Shakib is four behind, his 38th half century off 68 balls.

Slow going so far

But Bangladesh will take this for now. No further wickets lost. This is just what they didn't do in the Test series. Experience is showing. There is some turn for Bishoo and Nurse but Shakiob and Tamim have handled it well.

A half chance

Alzarri Joseph nearly strikes in his first over. It's a short and wide delivery but the ball sticks on the wicket and Tamim can't get in control of that attempted waft. Ashley Nurse dives but it doesn't stick. Just so you know, Tamim is on 17 and slowly getting comfortable.

At the other end, Shakib is extremely edgy, but more importantly not out!

Boundaries at last...

For Tamim Iqbal. And three of them. There's a glorious drive through extra cover, followed by a use of Russell's pace to flick a couple of deliveries to the on side. Winds of change? 10 overs 31-1

Meanwhile...

The last time Bangladesh played an ODI in Guyana, they claimed a slice of World Cup history. That, unlike this pitch, was a slow turner, the kind Abdur Razzaq loved.

Play resumes

Not much of a rain delay. We've lost 28 minutes but no overs. Bangladesh have to survive this tricky phase. Russell and Holder getting the ball to talk. Thankfully the visitors have the experience of Tamim and Shakib to help wade through this period.

Rain delay: Play interrupted

The intensity of the showers increase. Players taken off. But if there's some silver lining, it is that the sky appears to be clearing. But for now, the players are off the field.

Why don't you enjoy a nice cuppa coffee, just as Courtney Walsh seems to be doing in the visiting dressing room.

Early dismissal: Anamul Haque gone for a duck

Oh. Oh. Oh! A duck for Anamul Haque who was picked ahead of Liton Das in that troubled opening slot. There's a mild drizzle out there and Holder drags him to push a delivery outside off stump. Two slips wait in place and the second of that pouches a simple catch.

Shakib at No.3! Testing times for Bangladesh now as the drizzle constantly picks up. Holder's getting great outswing to the right-hander. But because there are two lefties out there, he's going round the wicket to tuck them up. Still not heavy enough for the umpires to take the players off.

Toss: Bangladesh elect to bat

You'd think after their batting debacles in the two Tests, they'd like to take a more wait and see approach by batting. Nope, this team (and for that matter even the Windies) don't let fortunes of one format affect another.

Mustafizur Rahman returns to the ODI squad after a lengthy injury spell post IPL 2018. If BCB CEO Nazmul Hasan is to be believed, there'll be no T20 cricket overseas for him for two years.

Tamim Iqbal and Anamul Haque (another chance for him) opening. The returning Andre Russell has one of the new balls!

Windies (Playing XI): Chris Gayle, Evin Lewis, Shai Hope(w), Jason Mohammed, Shimron Hetmyer, Rovman Powell, Andre Russell, Jason Holder(c), Devendra Bishoo, Ashley Nurse, Alzarri Joseph

Bangladesh (Playing XI): Tamim Iqbal, Anamul Haque, Sabbir Rahman, Mushfiqur Rahim(w), Shakib Al Hasan, Mahmudullah, Mosaddek Hossain, Mehidy Hasan, Mashrafe Mortaza(c), Rubel Hossain, Mustafizur Rahman

Toss coming up in few minutes.Stay tuned!

Fact check: The pitch at the venue has traditionally been in the favour of the slower bowlers, so we do have a spin-battle on the cards. Interestingly, the hosts have a poor record here, winning only 6 of the 13 ODIs.

Excited, then? Now, here's the bummer: The weather forecast isn't the best, with showers predicted through the day.Here's the match preview.

BIG NAMES RETURN:After a dismal showing in the Tests, Bangladesh have received a shot in the arm with the experienced Mashrafe Mortaza joining the squad for the ODIs. They also have a fit-again Mustafizur back. Likewise for the hosts, Andre Russell makes his national comeback in 50-overs format after having last represented West Indies in November 2015!

Welcome! Windies, who have been starved off ODI cricket since the World Cup Qualifier, and Bangladesh, who will be playing their first in seven months, kick off this three-match series in Guyana. Chance for both sides to fine-tune their preparations for the mega event that's now less than 12 months away.
